Photographer's Note

Warsaw Old Town square decorated to memorise the 60th anniversary of The Warsaw rising. Main part of fights took place in this area of Warsaw.

Warsaw rising ended 60 years ago. It lasted 63 days.
60th anniversary of Warsaw rising was celebrated by the whole Europe and guest from the other half of the world. Desperate military fight against German occupants deserves now respect of the whole world.
For those interested in facts I recommend a newly published book by Norman Davies.

A very nice idea for made this picture Marek, the culture and photographers are often together, very sharp and clear image here, the portraits are wonderful in black and white, well seen!
Thanks for sharing.

I was there, to celebrate the commencment of the opeartion. I must say that to see Warsaw, lively, warm and living within the shadow of destruction and murder is very powerful. It's a beautiful city, with a very tragic history.
